Donde estan tus ojos negros - Onnestain on puolet sinun

Kisu struck gold again with a Spanish melody in the 70's. In 1977 he recorded "Onnestain on puolet sinun" (Half of my happiness is yours). It was a success, and coincidentally(?) was again a cover of Santabarbara song (as was his 1973 hit "Uneen aika vaipuu"). Santabarbara had a huge European hit with the original "Donde estan tus ojos negros" (Where are your black eyes) in 1976.
